The Smoked Sausage Skillet has become a fast favorite in our house. In our recent efforts for better health - we've switched to Lean Turkey Smoked Sausage. Andy thought he liked the regular better, but alas - the winds of change! This skillet recipe is an easy one. Who wouldn't like fried potatoes, onions, peppers and smoked sausage? Bronwyn picks up an onion - "what's this?" We answer "Deliciousness!" Once again - we do not fool her, she can pick an onion out of just about anything, reminds me of my grandma...
This recipe is easy for a quick night, just takes a little time to chop a few things. Since this recipe uses the iron skillet it means I'm off limits from making it. Works out pretty well right? You see, I don't touch that skillet. It's Andy's. I suggested a recipe once for it, it took some of the finish off... the finish he's been working so hard to create... well... that didn't go over so well. So, now if I there is a recipe that says skillet - I made him decide of it's iron skillet worthy or if we need the non-stick skillet. Thankfully this one made the cut.
Give this one a try - it's a great all in one dish and not too rough on the belt loops. Don’t have an iron skillet? The non-stick kind will work just as well.
Kielbasa, Pepper, Onion and Potato Hash
1 (14 ounce) package turkey kielbasa, cut into 1/4 inch rounds
1 green bell pepper, diced
1/2 yellow, red or orange bell pepper, diced
1 onion, diced
3 small or 2 large potatoes, peeled and diced
olive oil
salt and pepper
Instructions
1.In a heavy bottomed skillet (I like to use my cast iron), heat 2 tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, around 8-10 minutes, stirring a few times to ensure even browning.
2.In a separate skillet, brown the sliced kielbasa for around 5 minutes in 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium high heat. Remove the kielbasa from the pan and set aside. Add the peppers and onions to the skillet and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, or until softened, stirring occasionally.
3.Add the cooked potatoes and kielbasa to the skillet with the onions and peppers and mix everything together. Serve nice and hot!
Nothing works "just as well."
